In an exclusive conversation with Prevention, expert multi-book author and relationship therapist Paul Coleman, highlighted some of the ways one can spot if their partner is cheating on them.
Red Flags To Spot A Potential Cheater In A Relationship
They Are Suddenly Unreachable
If, without warning or any explanation, your partner constantly becomes harder to reach, then it's a clear red flag. According to the psychologist, “Cheaters need privacy and blocks of uninterrupted time. Someone engaged in an ongoing affair must be periodically unreachable. After all, they don't want to risk you hearing suspicious voices or background noises.”
Their Schedule Change For No Reason
Most people have a predictable and set schedule. As per Paul, “Someone who must work late all of a sudden at times that go beyond a reasonable explanation may be cheating.”
They Pay More Attention To Their Appearance
Paul Coleman also suggests that if your partner is suddenly wearing cologne or spending a lot of money on new clothes for unknown reasons, it could well be a red flag as “the reasons and timing must make sense.”
Change In Phone Habit
Another telling sign from a philandering partner is if they "seem possessive over their phone, or get mad when you ask to use it, they may be hiding something.”
They Don't Talk About The Future Anymore
In a committed relationship, it is normal to speak about the future. “If you feel like your partner is checking out of the relationship, no longer making future plans, or talking about long-term intentions,” that can be an indication of infidelity.
Experts do recommend though that one must be cautious about rushing to conclusions or making assumptions. It is always best to confirm one's suspicions with verifiable evidence before broaching a sensitive subject such as this with one's partner.
